Lahat ng Kabanata ng Triplet Alphas and Their Reluctant Mate: Kabanata 161 - Kabanata 170

IZZY POV I knocked on the boys’ bedrooms doors, one after the other.  “Hurry up!” I shouted.  “Your fathers are waiting!  We have a surprise for you!” Today was the boys’ twelfth birthday and we had a surprise planned for them.  We were leaving the Pack in the hands of Alpha Steven, and we were taking a week long vacation to a private island that my mates had rented for the week.  We were bringing Lucy, Brian and Zaria; Kat; Griz, Destiny and their new little one, Pete; and my mother and her mate.  It would be a full plane and a week’s worth of fun.  Troi twined around my legs, and I reached down to pet her.  She was going on thirteen years old, elderly for a cat, but she was as nimble and agile as a kitten.  She leaned into my hand and purred.  I absently patted her and then went down to breakfast.  Joanna was finally retired and her granddaughter, Piper, had replaced her, schooled by her grandma

IZZY POVCaleb put his arm around me and I shivered at his touch.  I loved that even after all these years, my mates could arouse me with just a caress.  I leaned back into his bare chest, and he put his arms around me. “It’s beautiful here,” I said, watching the kids play in the water.  The triplets were ganging up on Zaria but she was holding her own, swimming like a fish.  Most wolves didn’t swim well, but since I grew up human, I did.  I made sure to teach our children to swim and Lucy had asked me to include Zaria in the lessons as well.  She was a much better swimmer than my boys.“Yes, you are beautiful,” Caleb murmured, kissing my mark.  I laughed and reached up to hold my hat on while I tipped my head back so that he could attack my lips with his.  He obliged, bumping his head on the rim of my hat.  Chuckling, he pulled it off.“This makes it hard to kiss

GRIZ POVThe radio of one of the men squawked and a question was asked.  I recognized the language and held out my hand.  Reese put the radio in it and I answered.“Vse khorosho,” I answered, hoping that my accent was right.  There was a response, and I lowered the my arm. “We got a half hour, tops,” I said.  Everyone was looking at me. “Were they speaking Russian?” Reese asked.  I nodded.“Were you speaking Russian?” Izzy asked.  I nodded again.“That’s where I’m from,” I said by means of explanation.  “But it’s been a long time.  My accent is off.”  They all looked at me, saying nothing.  Finally, Alessia broke the silence.“Half hour tops,” she repeated.  I ignored everyone’s look and turned, striding into the compound’s territory, raising my head and sn

IZZY POVI was shocked at how much making a decision to be proactive instead of reactive was in raising our morale.  It was like a huge weight had been lifted off from all of us.  Griz quit being mad at Kat and even Reese softened towards her, though I could tell he was still mad that she had gone off on her own and been irresponsible.“I think we should just storm the compound,” mom said, peeling a piece of roasted rabbit off the bone.  Kat eyed the decimated carcass and I noticed she had completely eaten her portion already.  I slid the rest of mine over to her, winking.  She took it with thanks.“And do what when we’re there?” Reese asked reasonably.  “We did that when we rescued Izzy and they just built another compound and came back stronger.”“That’s not really what happened, though,” Kat pointed out.  Reese stiffened when she spoke but at least he wasn&rs

REESE POV I disconnected and then turned to Alessia. “Well, that’s done. Ethan and a few warriors are on their way here along with supplies. Caleb has fine tuned our plan and is working on calling in favors to get some satellite feed for when this happens.” Alessia nodded but didn’t seem pleased. I frowned. “What’s wrong?” She shrugged. “I’m concerned about the prophecy,” she admitted. “Why?” I asked. “We’ve decided it’s not worth it to us to sit and wait for it to come to pass. We all agreed we need to take action on it.” She nodded. “I still believe that,” she said. “But it’s a prophecy, Reese. You can’t just get circumvent a prophecy.” I shrugged. “We can try.” “I think it will still come to pass,” she said, glumly. I didn’t say anything. I hadn’t thought of it that way, but now that she said it, she could be right. “I want to bring Caleb in on this conversation,” I said. I hated to admit it, but my brother was so much better at the details of things than I
